Device properties highlighting Resource Settings. Step 3: Device listed twice Remove
all of the duplicated devices, and install again
1. Remove each duplicate item from the hardware list. Click its name,
and then click Remove. When you are finished, no instances of the conflicting hardware should be listed.
2. Click
OK.
3. Now (while still within the
Control panel),
double-click on the Add new hardware icon. If you see a message that you already have a wizard open, click
Finish in that wizard, and then click the button in this step to start anew wizard.
4. Click
Next.
5. Click the option to automatically detect your hardware, and then click
Next. Continue until you finish the wizard. Did this fix the problem
- If the conflict no longer appears, this should correct the problem, and you should be done. Exit the
Control panel and restart Windows 95.
-
If the conflict still appears, go to Step 2.
Step 4: Resource settings appear Identify exactly which resources are causing the conflict
1. In the
Conflicting device list box, identify the hardware that is using conflicting resources. Is more than one resource conflict listed
- If more than one resource conflict is listed, go to Step 7.
-
If only one conflict is listed, go to Step 8.
- If no conflicts are listed, or if one or more indications show
System reserved as the conflict, go to Step 9. Step 5: Manual button appears Determine why the
resources are not displayed 1. When the
Resources tab shows a
Set configuration manually button, it is either because the device has a conflict or other problem and is disabled, or because the resource settings used by this
device are working properly, but they don’t match any of the known configurations.
2. You can tell which situation applies by reading the text above the button. Which text message do you see
- If you see a message that says The device is conflicting, or the device is not currently enabled or has a problem then go to Step 10.
- If you see a message that says The resource settings don’t match any known configurations there is no further solution to the problem. You should probably remove the conflicting device. Step 6: There is no Resources tab You have probably chosen the wrong device. Select the correct device
1. Click
Cancel to return to the hardware list.
2. Carefully double-click the hardware that has a conflict.
3. In the
Device usage area, be sure that there is a check in the box next to the configuration marked Current If the box isn’t checked, check it now.
4. Click the
Resources tab. Do you see a box
with resource settings now - If the box with resource settings now appears, go to Step 4.
- If you see a
Set configuration manually button, go to Step 5.
- If the resource settings still do not appear, there is no further solution to the problem. You should probably remove the conflicting device. Step 7: More than one conflict
is listed At this point, you should determine just how many devices are listed as being conflicting.
- If you only see one device causing all the conflicts, go to Step 11.
- If more than one device is causing the conflicts, go to Step 12.
